My dream
hello everyone!
Students, guests , teachers and Honorable Judges
Good morning !
my great pleasure to share my dream with you today. my dream is to become a teacher....
As the whole world has its boundaries, limits and freedom coexist in our life. I don’t expect complete freedom, which is impossible. I simply have a dream that supports my life.
I dream that one day, I could escape from the deep sea of thick schoolbooks and lead my own life. With my favorite fictions, I lie freely on the green grass, smelling the spring, listening to the wind singing, breathing the fresh and cool air and dissolve my soul in nature at last. Simple and short enjoyment can bring me great satisfaction.
I dream that one day the adults could throw their prejudice of comic and cartoon away. They could keep a lovely heart that can share sorrow and happiness with us while watching cartoon or doing personal things. That’s the real communication of heart to heart.
I have the belief that my dreams should come true. I am looking forward to some day coming when I am like a proud eagle, which flies to the blue and vast sky.
Thank you!

I have a dream today
hello everyone!
I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King. But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.
However, we meed dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great. When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant. Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectives and stick to it. Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future. Through our talents, through our wits, through our endurance and through our creativity, we will make it.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.
Thank you!

My Dream
Wide sea diving, the days of the birds to fly. Everyone carries a dream of their own.
However, what is the dream? What is dream? Dream is looking forward to, and the dream is strong - is fleeting dream you insist on the ideal as their courage and perseverance, are you responsible for their own highest level. But ask yourself, how many of us to accomplish his original dream in mind?
Our dream is a simple belief, is a future and life of their own responsibility. Perhaps, is the Youth
grand ambitions; perhaps, is the adolescent confusion and impulsive; maybe just a plain desire, desire applause, eager for success. Countless "may," innumerable "hope" because of our youthful full of miracles, large and small dreams in our hearts, in every corner of life filled with fragrance.
Only the ideal but no effort is useless. If you want to be a teacher, you should to study hard. If you want to be a player, you should do more exercises. If you want to become a businessman, he should learn to get along with people. For example, my wish is to be a famous writer grew up, because I really love writing, so from now on, I should read more, more accumulate knowledge, and strive to improve writing level. No pains, no gains, because my efforts, so my article was punished in many newspapers , and in many composition contest, I see the success I'm happy, so, struggle is the bridge to the ideal.
Yes, my dream. to give my famliy a warm, give my friend happy. Yes, my dream. The podium from the first station began his love this place, started from the first published an article looking forward to the world of words, decided to stay here from the beginning, stick to bottom of my heart desire.
Years in our faces no matter how many additional traces, no matter how much things to us across the chest wounds, as long as we have the right to breathe, to have a passion for remodeling dreams! Oxygen to survive as long as we have to have the courage to create a passion!
Choose to continue, select the value, select the achievements of the passion of life, the brave hearts of the initial dream of success!

我是6班，我的名字是某某，我很榮幸在這里講話，我很高興能和你分享我的話題，做我們自己的事。
隨著社會的發(fā)展，越來越多的人迷失了自我，他們不知道自己想做什么，他們不知道自己在做什么，這是多么可怕!
對于我們，我們不能選擇出生，我們不能選擇我們的父母，我們不能選擇我們的出生國，我們不能選擇我們的死亡時間，但我們可以選擇如何面對我們的生活：幸福或不快樂，積極或消極。什么是重要的，我們應(yīng)該做什么，我們不應(yīng)該做什么，我們可以自己決定。不管我們?nèi)绾芜x擇和決定，所有這些都是由我們做的，所以不要太在意別人怎么看你，只做自己，自己做。

My Chinese Dream
我的中國夢
I am very glad to stand here to give thier a short speech.Today my topic is that the youth are the future of motherland
很高興站在這里做這篇短小的演講，我演講的主題是青年是祖國的未來。
When preparing for the English speech contest, I simply want to search some articles as the contents of my speech. I read a lot of articles, some from the university professor, some from the famous host, some from the college students, and even from junior high school students. But after reading it, I gave up the idea, I even felt shameful. Today,the topic I want to talk about is a solemn and serious theme full of glory and pride, which is a common aspiration of all our Chinese. Every Chinese has his own dream of China, and of course, there is a dream lingering in my heart only belongs to my own.
在準備英語演講比賽的時候，我本想簡單地從網(wǎng)上搜索一些文章作為我演講的內(nèi)容。我看過很多文章，有著名主持人的、北大教授的、大學生的，也有初中生的。但是看完之后，我放棄了當初的想法，我甚至為當初的想法感到有一些羞愧。因為今天我站在這里向大家演講的主題，是一個莊重而嚴肅的主題;是一個充滿榮耀與自豪的主題;是每一個中華兒女共同期盼的主題。每個人都有屬于他們自己的中國夢，而我，當然也有一直縈繞在心懷只屬于我的中國夢。
So what’s my Chinese dream ? Finally I will announce.
We had learned a lot of knowledge and understood a lot of truth in the book. We had a basic concept to our country at that time. We know that our country is full of sunshine , and we are the future of our country, and our dreams are to be the hope of our motherland.
我的中國夢是什么樣的?先賣個關(guān)子。
記得剛剛上學那會兒，我們天真無邪。在課本里，我們學到了很多很多知識，也明白了很多很多道理，我們對祖國也有了一個最基本的概念。我們知道我們的祖國到處充滿陽光，正在慢慢發(fā)展，而我們，就是祖國未來的花朵，未來的希望。我們夢想將來能夠成為祖國的希望。
However,We don't know what time to start,We are grow up,Life became not the same, though we don’t want to admit, it’s the truth that our mind and attitude to our country is changing. Our society became full of deception, indifference, intrigue, pressure, corruption, sinister, and we became irritable and not calm, detest the world and its ways. Our country seems to have become in a disastrous state too. A lot of young students who were nurtured by our motherland became impatient, let alone what are their dreams , what is the china dream ?
這，是我們最初的中國夢。最真誠的我們，最真誠的夢。
但是，不知道什么時候開始，我們長大了，生活似乎一下子變得和以前不太一樣了，與此同時，雖然我們很不想承認但是卻又不得不承認的是，我們的思想，我們的為人處世觀，我們對我們祖國的看法，也潛移默化中慢慢開始了轉(zhuǎn)變。我們的社會變得到處充滿欺騙、冷漠、勾心斗角、壓力、腐敗、險惡，我們變得暴躁，不冷靜，憤世嫉俗。我們的國家，似乎也開始變得千瘡百孔。而好多我們親愛的祖國委以重任培養(yǎng)的青年學生們變得輕浮、急躁，更別提什么夢想，什么中國夢了?
I was surprised ,when the old man fell down in the street,We are afraid to help him.I was disappointed ,when someone do good things were reported,many people think he was affectation, I was sad,when I saw many of young people become indifferent ,fraud and lack of ideal.
Are we sick, or is our dear motherland sick?
我很驚訝，當大街上有老人摔倒，我們不敢再去扶起;我很難過，當有人做了好事被報道，更多的人說他做作;我很傷心，當我看到我們眾多的青年人變得冷漠、市儈、欺詐以及缺乏理想。
到底是我們病了，還是我們親愛的祖國病了?
I don't want to talk about the construction of our country politics, and also speak impassioned speech on the Diaoyu Island event .I just want to appeal young people,showing the side of youth,good and confidence.We must learn to organize our own thoughts, correct our own concept, and change our direction to the right side in future life. China dream actually lies in our young generation, especially of the intellectuals.
我的中國夢，不想大談?wù)危膊幌雽︶烎~島事件發(fā)表慷慨激昂的演講。我只想呼吁，呼吁我們年輕人，呼吁我們祖國的希望能夠?qū)⑽覀兊那啻阂幻妫瑢⑽覀兊纳屏家幻妫瑢⑽覀兊淖孕乓幻婧煤谜宫F(xiàn)出來。我們要學會整理自己的思想，端正自己看問題的觀念，擺正自己的人生方向。我們的中國夢實際上正掌握在我們自己手上，掌握在我們年青一代，尤其是知識分子手上。
Perhaps the strength of a person is small, but when his or her fate is connected with the motherland, he or she will be hero or heroine. Perhaps a dream is tiny, but when it becomes the dream of a country, it becomes inestimable. Perhaps I cannot change our country by my own, but if thousands and thousands of young people struggle for the dream together, our motherland is enough to make the world shock.
也許，一個人，是渺小的;但是當他和祖國聯(lián)系起來時，就是偉大的。也許，一個夢想，是渺小的，但是當它成為祖國的夢想時，就是不可估量的。也許，我無法用自己一個人的力量撬起整個中國，但是我們千千萬萬年輕人一起為祖國的夢想去奮斗時，我們的祖國就足以令世界顫抖、動容。
I dream to construct our beauty China with millions of young people who have the same dream. We do it without exaggeration but only with persistence.
我夢想和萬千具有相同夢想的年輕人去建設(shè)我們的美麗中國，沒有虛浮，只有執(zhí)著，只有奮斗，只有勇于擔當。這就是我的中國夢!
That is my speech,thanks everyone.
我的演講就到這里，謝謝大家。

In the matter of courage we all have our limits. There never was a hero who did not have his bounds. I suppose it may be said of Nelson and all the others whose courage has been advertised that there came times in their lives when their bravery knew it had come to its limit.
I have found mine a good many times. Sometimes this was expected--often it was unexpected. I know a man who is not afraid to sleep with a rattle-snake, but you could not get him to sleep with a safety-razor.
I never had the courage to talk across a long, narrow room. I should be at the end of the room facing all the audience. If I attempt to talk across a room I find myself turning this way and that, and thus at alternate periods I have part of the audience behind me. You ought never to have any part of the audience behind you; you never can tell what they are going to do.
I'll sit down.

"If you don't want to wake up and find you have no pants to wear, you'd better put themon in sleep," goes a popular joke among students. Obviously, campus thefts have becomeincreasingly annoying as they occur far more often than before. And it seems that the thievesare less choosy these days, with their targets ranging widely from bikes, cell phones, purses,pre-paid IC cards to sunglasses, bags, and even underwear. In short, anything that worth adime is likely to be stolen.
What makes students the easy targets? The reasons are not hard to find. But I believe ofall these reasons, the lack of anti-theft alertness is the most important. For lack of alertness,the students tend to leave the doors and windows wide open during sleep at noon or at nightin summer. For the same reason, they'll also leave their bikes unlocked before a store or by aroad, or forget to take away their personal stuff before they go out of the classroom to make aphone call. These acts undoubtedly have increased their exposure to the light-fingeredmonsters.
In order to minimize possible losses, the students must stay on guard in the first place, asawareness of the thefts around often makes a big difference. To be more specific, thestudents should not hide any tempting amount of cash in the dorm. Put it in the bank instead.Besides, do not leave any valuable items unattended. Take them wherever you go. Inaddition, it's advisable to develop a neighbourhood watch programme with other students inthe dorm and neighbouring dorms.

Good evening,everyone! The theme of my speech today is "I love the motherland".
Some people say, "China's existence itself is destined to be a miracle. There is no need to doubt it." Indeed, in this short years, disasters have brought us grief, but they have not depressed our will, but more united us and united us. With strength, faith and love, we have stepped on all disasters. This courageous force comes from a young country, a nation with 5000 years of splendid civilization, and even more from the 1.3 billion hardworking and brave Chinese people.
Time can't wash away the history of lead China. He has witnessed the ups and downs in the past years and is unforgettable in the past years. History has long become the past, but we need to look back and understand. The poverty and backwardness of the past and the "sick man of East Asia" in the past no longer belong to us. Now we have used the Oriental arrow to fly GDP and make it rise at the fastest speed on the horizon. In the United Nations, in the OECD, in the Boao Forum and at the financial summit, the world has never been so silent as today to listen to our voice.
Walking proudly in 20xx and looking forward to the future, the Chinese nation will be prosperous and strong, and the Chinese people will be happy and healthy. In the future, China will show its colorful figure in front of the world, stand tall in the world with brilliant achievements, and leave our own story in the long river of history.
Summarize the experience of years, aftertaste the wind and rain of years, praise the glory of years, and remember the history of years. We are happy to feel that we are a Chinese and the descendants of a dragon. Aftertaste the years of the Republic. We feel too much, move too much, and have too much to thank. Standing at the crossroads of history, looking back and looking forward, I wish my motherland better and stronger with a 17-year-old heart!
thank you!

Everyone has a lot of friends and he must have his own friendship as well.But usually only when you get into trouble, will you know what the truefriendship is. The friend in need is the friend in deed. Only the real friendswill help you when you are in trouble. If you establish your friendship when youare in trouble, make it go on forever.
每個人都有很多朋友，也一定有屬于他自己的友誼。但是，通常只有當你遇到困難時，你才能知道什么是真正的友誼。患難見真情，只有真正的朋友會在你身處困境時幫助你。如果你在逆境中將友誼建立，那么請讓它繼續(xù)到永遠。
Maybe a boy and a girl become good friends. They feel very happy when theyare each other, but other students may think that they have fallen in love. Ifyou were one of them, what would you do?

Friendship is veryimportant for everyone, so I will let my friendship last forever.

but here's the thing about my grandfather. underneath this ceremonial role, he was really modest and really introverted -- so much so that when he delivered these sermons, he had trouble making eye contact with the very same congregation that he had been speaking to for 62 years. and even away from the podium, when you called him to say hello, he would often end the conversation prematurely for fear that he was taking up too much of your time. but when he died at the age of 94, the police had to close down the streets of his neighborhood to accommodate the crowd of people who came out to mourn him. and so these days i try to learn from my grandfather's example in my own way.
so i just published a book about introversion, and it took me about seven years to write. and for me, that seven years was like total bliss, because i was reading, i was writing, i was thinking, i was researching. it was my version of my grandfather's hours of the day alone in his library. but now all of a sudden my job is very different, and my job is to be out here talking about it, talking about introversion. (laughter) and that's a lot harder for me, because as honored as i am to be here with all of you right now, this is not my natural milieu.
so i prepared for moments like these as best i could. i spent the last year practicing public speaking every chance i could get. and i call this my “year of speaking dangerously.“ (laughter) and that actually helped a lot. but i'll tell you, what helps even more is my sense, my belief, my hope that when it comes to our attitudes to introversion and to quiet and to solitude, we truly are poised on the brink on dramatic change. i mean, we are. and so i am going to leave you now with three calls for action for those who share this vision.

These were the men of the whaleship Essex, whose story would later inspire parts of “Moby Dick.”
Even in today's world, their situation would be really dire, but think about how much worse it would have been then.
No one on land had any idea that anything had gone wrong. No search party was coming to look for these men. So most of us have never experienced a situation as frightening as the one in which these sailors found themselves, but we all know what it's like to be afraid.
We know how fear feels, but I'm not sure we spend enough time thinking about what our fears mean.
As we grow up, we're often encouraged to think of fear as a weakness, just another childish thing to discard like baby teeth or roller skates.
And I think it's no accident that we think this way. Neuroscientists have actually shown that human beings are hard'wired to be optimists.
So maybe that's why we think of fear, sometimes, as a danger in and of itself. “Don't worry,” we like to say to one another. “Don't panic.” In English, fear is something we conquer. It's something we fight.

My major is . My job is to discover or create new drugs for many diseases like cancer. You know that laboratory is the place where miracles happen. Believe it or not. What I do can save millions of people’s lives. For a long time, what challenges me is how to commercialize research. You come up with a great idea, but moving that new discovery from theory to practice or from the lab to the marketplace, that's really a big job. That’s what we should focus on. We need to act with a sense of urgency-to study and work and create as if the fate of the country depends on us-because it does. It depends on us. Thank you!
Our new president Xi Jinping came up with the dream of the Chinese nation's rejuvenation on December 29, 20xx. He said: the Chinese dream is a dream of national strength prosperity and people's happiness. Our people have an ardent love for life. They wish to have better education, more stable jobs, more income, greater social security , better medical and health care, improved housing conditions and better environment,They want their children to grow well, have ideal jobs and lead a more enjoyable life. To meet their desire for a happy life is our mission."
2He also expounded his views of realizing
our great dream. He said : To realize the dream, China must take the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The country must also foster the Chinese spirit,in which patriotism and the spirit of reform and innovation play a core role, and unite 1.3 billion people of all ethnicities into a great source of strength.
3I always ask myself what
can I do for our great Chinese dream ? As we all know that the wiser the youths are ,the wiser the nation will be;the wealthier the youths are ,the wealthier the nation will be;the stronger the youths are ,the stronger the nation
will be. Here the word wealthy means: enriching our knowledge reserve. As a new generation of science, every one here shouldering the great historical mission of ma-ki-ng china powerful and strong. You may say that this may exaggerate our role, but I want to say you are wrong. If I am a little screw our great dream may be a multifunction and complex machine. Through this example I just want to say I am very tiny but I am indispensable .
I believe that as long as all of our university students unite together and perform our own functions that study hard in school and work hard after we graduating from university . we must be able to achieve our great dream meanwhile enrich ourselves unwittingly!
President Xi also said:We are closer than in any other time of history to the goal of rejuvenating the Chinese nation. We are more confident and capable of achieving this goal than in any other period of history,"
lets us unite together to realize Chinese nation's great rejuvenation to struggle!

Friendship
友誼
Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. My friends will listen to me when I want to speak, will wipe my eyes when I cry, will take care of me when I am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
我們每個人,不論富裕還是貧窮,至少應(yīng)該有一個或兩個好朋友。我的朋友會聽我說,如果我想說話,要擦去我的眼睛當我哭泣,會照顧我在我生病時,我的朋友將與我一起肩并肩在這人生旅程。
Friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. It is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. It is also like a cup of tea. When we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
友誼是一種財寶在我們的生活。它實際上是像一瓶酒,越久保留,這將是更香甜。它就像一杯茶。當我們口渴時,這將是對我們最好的選擇,但當我們有足夠的時間去玩得很開心的,它也是最芬芳的飲料。
All of us have to spare some time for personal lives. We have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. When staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. We can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry to-gether. I should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
我們所有的人都要花點時間來個人的生活。我們必須找到機會來表達我們的感情和愛。當住在我們的朋友,我們可以放松自己完全。我們可以做任何我們想要的,我們能一起大聲笑,一起交談,甚至哭泣下。我應(yīng)該說,是我們最好的朋友一起是最精彩的時刻,我們的生活。
As we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. But it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. There is a famous motto saying that “A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” It is really true. We have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. When we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
正如我們所知道的,我們會感到寂寞,如果我們還沒有一個朋友。但這并不意味著我們可以依靠我們的朋友。有個著名的格言說:“一個朋友就像一個棉花棉絲被子,但真正的東西,是使你暖和是你自己的溫度。“這是真的。我們必須努力同我們的朋友,互相激勵,互相幫助。當我們能收到更多的愛與友誼,我們應(yīng)該償還高達就可以了。
Finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts
最后,讓我們一起祈禱了,有一天,我們都能找到我們想找的人,就可以享受一段美好友誼的真正左右我們的生活了。讓我們一起祈禱友誼之花卻成為我們的朋友,我們將永遠綻放鮮艷的在我們的心中

Time flies!Our freshmen have spent two months in our beautiful campus of university. Every new beginning is a new challenge.We can't expect anything to be the same as our imagine.Different envirenment is a new battle.We are always curious with the things around.Though we come from different placeswe have our own dream our own ambition our own challenge.But the mankind is sometimes so fragile that it can't withstand outside lure.
Many students are the first time to be so far away form home.They come to a foreign city a foreign campus facing so many foreign but friendly faces.Plenty of activities bring us fresh air and pleasant fleeing.Be busy with study and work enriches our lifehelping preventing our homesick.
Life in campus is different with that in elementary school and middle school.We have much spare time dominated by our own.Our campus is just like another home.People from all corners of our country come together to form a big family.There are tears as well as laughters.We have troubles but we are also learning to conquer them.We become more and more brave and more and more stronger.We are no longer the little baby that will never grow up in our parents eyes.We are growing up day by day.
I love the life in our university. We have a new starting point a new origin and a period of a brand new life.Our freshmen life is continuing.Please wait and see our brilliant achievement!

Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. I don’t know who wrote these words, but I’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It’s the matter of the will. It’s the freshness of the deep spring of life.
A poet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I’d like to share it with all of you. Let’s show our right palms. We can see three
lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let’s make a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in frront of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let’s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”
翻譯：有人說“我們正在讀一本書的第一章的第一節(jié),頁數(shù)無限的”。我不知道誰寫的這些話,但我一直很喜歡他們提醒人們,可以是任何我們想要的未來。我們都是農(nóng)民的地位。我們?nèi)舴N下好種子,我們收獲豐收。如果我們工廠什么都沒有,我們什么也沒收獲。
我們年輕的時候。“如何度過青春?“這是一個有意義的問題。要回答這個問題,首先我要問“你怎么理解這個詞的青年嗎?“青春不是生命的一個階段,它是一種心態(tài)。它不是紅潤的面頰,紅色的嘴唇和柔軟的膝蓋。它的問題。它是生命的深泉的清新。
一個詩人說:“從一粒沙子看到一個世界,從一朵野花看到一個天堂,把無限放在你的手掌,永恒也就消融于一個時辰。幾天前,我有機會聽一個講座。我學到了很多。我想與大家分享。讓我們展示我們的右手掌。我們可以看到三個
行,展示我們的愛。職業(yè)和生活。我有一個短線的生活。你的呢?我想知道是否我們可以看到我們的未來。好吧,讓我們做一個拳頭。我們的未來在哪里?哪里是我們的愛,事業(yè)和生活?告訴我。是的,它是在我們的手中。這是在自己舉行。
我們都希望未來會比過去更好。但是未來可以更好的自己。不要因為完結(jié)而哭,要為曾經(jīng)發(fā)生而微笑。從過去,我們知道,生活是艱苦的,但我們是更堅強。我們知道我們不能選擇我們的感覺,但我們可以選擇。失敗并不意味著你不擁有它,它意味著你應(yīng)該換一種方式。失敗并不意味著你應(yīng)該放棄,它意味著你須更加努力。
就像我一開始說,“我們正在讀一本書的第一章的第一節(jié),頁數(shù)無限的”。過去的已經(jīng)過去了。我們所做的任何事都不會改變它。但是未來是在我們面前。相信我們給世界,世界將給我們。從今天開始,我們是自己的主人,說出“我們是世界,我們是未來。”

Ladies and Gentlemen:
My topic is Honesty.
As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr. James Gilman, the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England. In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’s tooth. This is a true story.
65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao. Then he was only 5 years old. He often visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there, which he thought was a dragon. He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted one to keep as a treasure.
He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at having stolen it was there in the background all through his life. It was always on his conscience, and the feeling intensified as he became older. Finally he decided to put right his childish error. In 20xx, he visited Qingdao and returned it to the Aquarium with his sincere apologies. He received a warm welcome.
When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported on his visit. I was deeply touched by his honesty. It has taught me a lot. I think to err is human. The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correct one’s error.
Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour. So we should try to keep an honest mind in everything we say and do. I would like to say to all of my friends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.
Thank you.

Friendshi
友誼
Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. My friends will listen to me when I want to speak, will wipe my eyes when I cry, will take care of me when I am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
我們每個人,不論富裕還是貧窮,至少應(yīng)該有一個或兩個好朋友。我的朋友會聽我說,如果我想說話,要擦去我的眼睛當我哭泣,會照顧我在我生病時,我的朋友將與我一起肩并肩在這人生旅程。
Friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. It is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. It is also like a cup of tea. When we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
友誼是一種財寶在我們的生活。它實際上是像一瓶酒,越久保留,這將是更香甜。它就像一杯茶。當我們口渴時,這將是對我們最好的選擇,但當我們有足夠的時間去玩得很開心的,它也是最芬芳的飲料。
All of us have to spare some time for personal lives. We have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. When staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. We can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry to-gether. I should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
我們所有的人都要花點時間來個人的生活。我們必須找到機會來表達我們的感情和愛。當住在我們的朋友,我們可以放松自己完全。我們可以做任何我們想要的,我們能一起大聲笑,一起交談,甚至哭泣下。我應(yīng)該說,是我們最好的朋友一起是最精彩的時刻,我們的生活。

Our character, basically, is a composite of our habits. “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny,” the maxim goes.
Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable. We weave a strand of it everyday and soon it cannot be broken.” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But I also know it isn't a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous commitment.
Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were transfixed as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts literally had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half a million miles.
Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply imbedded habitual tendencies such as procrastination, impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that violate basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new dimension.
Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together, that keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the cohesiveness and order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.

Good morning my friends,
I am a student from class 1 and my name is zou yu ting.I am very glad thatI can have the chance to make a speech before you. The topic of my speech is 'Weneed friendship'.
The word 'friend' has many meanings. It can be a partner, a playmate aswell as a confident. In all, our friends play an important role in ourlives.
Maybe you will ask me 'What is friendship? '.some people say thatfriendship is a ray of sunshine in the dark. Friendship can make you away fromdarkness and can cheer you up at the same time.
Based on this, you may come up with another question 'Why we needfriendship? '.We everyone needs friendship. No one can live alone. As life isfull of difficulties, we need friends to support and help us out. Our friendsgive us warnings against danger. Our friends offer us advice with regard to howto deal with various situations. True friends share not only happiness, but alsosadness.
As an old saying goes, a friend in need is a friend in deed. Fortunately, Ihave a true friend. She is not beautiful but very kind. Every time I met withproblems, she gave me courage and confidence to overcome
difficulties. When I was in low spirits, she told me some funny jokes tocheer me up. When I caught in distress , she rushed to me to lend a helpinghand. All these make it easy to stay with her. But every time when I greatlythanked her, she disappeared in the crowd.
Last but not the least. 'How should we make friends? 'Personally I thinkthe most important thing is to be friendly. Cheerfulness is the basis offriendship. Believe it , smile is an attractive thing. A friendly person alwaysthinks of others. People who refuse to consider others have few friends.
With friendship, life is happy and harmonious. Why don’t you treasure ourfriendship? Come on, everyone! Let’s try our best to make friends.
I hope my speech will be successful. That's all. Thank you forlistening.

When George was thirty-five, he bought a small plane and learned to fly it. He soon became very good and made his plane do all kinds of tricks.
George had a friend. His name was Mark. One day George offered to take Mark up in his plane. Mark thought, "I've travelled in a big plane several times, but I've never been in a small one, so I'll go."
They went up, and George flew around for half an hour and did all kinds of tricks in the air.
When they came down again, Mark was very glad to be back safely, and he said to his friend in a shaking voice, "Well, George, thank you very much for those two trips in your plane."
George was very surprised and said, "Two trips?"
"Yes, my first and my last," answered Mark.

good evening, ladies and gentlemen:
i’d like to start with a group of pictures.
"modern and advanced"? this society forgets, and ignores the other two thirds of human beings. it's far from the ideal! we call ideal as a utopian, a place where reality does not exist. a few people still look forward to the ideals. we make fun of them, considering they are naive. will we still be content to live in such a society, if misfortune drops to us? no! of cause not!
when we feel the warmth of the sun, these people, endure great sorrows and pains. can we imagine that? they are our brother and sisters!
facing them, will we still complain about our own misfortune?
facing them, will we still have the mood shouting for our own freedom? facing them, will we still want to have more and more unnecessary stuff?
they are unable to meet their needs, even the basic needs of survival! everyone, as a member of humanity, shouldn't feel ashamed? our luxury deprived their lives, our indifference violated our soul, and our barbarity destroyed human civilization!
what's the ideal society? it's a society no one worries about their living, a society no one is refused from education, a society everyone can pursue his/her own happiness! the ideal society is filled with love, joy and kindness. in that society, we can touch the other's hearts, we can share our dreams and most important, we can just be the true men!
let's break the ethnic divide, bridge the gap between rich and poor, hand in hand, to build a great wall, protecting us from evil; to construct a steady bridge, connecting reality to the ideal society! let's pursue for that, that's the only way to the bright future! they are watching us! thank you!
smoking is a greater cause of death and disability than any single disease, says the world health organisation.
according to their figures, it is responsible for approximately five million deaths worldwide every year.
tobacco smoking is a known or probable cause of approximately 25 diseases, and even the who says that its impact on world health is not fully assessed.
heart attack and stroke
uk studies show that smokers in their 30s and 40s are five times more likely to have a heart attack than non-smokers.
tobacco contributes to the hardening of the arteries, which can then become blocked and starve the heart of bloodflow, causing the attack.
often, smokers who develop this will require complex and risky heart bypass surgery.
if you smoke for a lifetime, there is a 50% chance that your eventual death will be smoking-related - half of all these deaths will be in middle age.
smoking also increases the risk of having a stroke.
lung problems
another primary health risk associated with smoking are lung cancer, which kills more than 20,000 people in the uk every year.
us studies have shown that men who smoke increase their chances of dying from the disease by more than 22 times.
women who smoke increase this risk by nearly 12 times.
lung cancer is a difficult cancer to treat - long term survival rates are poor.
smoking also increases the risk of oral, uterine, liver, kidney, bladder, stomach, and cervical cancers, and leukaemia.
another health problem associated with tobacco is emphysema, which, when combined with chronic bronchitis, produces chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
he lung damage which causes emphysema is irreversible, and makes it extremely difficult to breathe.
harm to children

smoking by parents following the birth is linked to sudden infant death syndrome, or cot death, and higher rates of infant respiratory illness, such as bronchitis, colds, and pneumonia.
nicotine, an ingredient of tobacco, is listed as an addictive substance by the us authorities.

there are believed to be 1.1 billion smokers in the world, 800 million of them in developing countries.

justice story: "impeachment" is attended -- "is intended for occasional and extraordinary cases where a superior power acting for the whole people is put into operation to protect their rights and rescue their liberties from violations." we know about the huston plan. we know about the break-in of the psychiatrist's office. we know that there was absolute complete direction on september 3rd when the president indicated that a surreptitious entry had been made in dr. fielding's office, after having met with mr. ehrlichman and mr. young. "protect their rights." "rescue their liberties from violation."
the carolina ratification convention impeachment criteria: those are impeachable "who behave amiss or betray their public trust."4 beginning shortly after the watergate break-in and continuing to the present time, the president has engaged in a series of public statements and actions designed to thwart the lawful investigation by government prosecutors. moreover, the president has made public announcements and assertions bearing on the watergate case, which the evidence will show he knew to be false. these assertions, false assertions, impeachable, those who misbehave. those who "behave amiss or betray the public trust."
james madison again at the constitutional convention: "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution." the constitution charges the president with the task of taking care that the laws be faithfully executed, and yet the president has counseled his aides to commit perjury, willfully disregard the secrecy of grand jury proceedings, conceal surreptitious entry, attempt to compromise a federal judge, while publicly displaying his cooperation with the processes of criminal justice. "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution."
if the impeachment provision in the constitution of the united states will not reach the offenses charged here, then perhaps that 18th-century constitution should be abandoned to a 20th-century paper shredder.
has the president committed offenses, and planned, and directed, and acquiesced in a course of conduct which the constitution will not tolerate? that's the question. we know that. we know the question. we should now forthwith proceed to answer the question. it is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision.
i yield back the balance of my time, mr. Chairman.

who and groups famously follow the opinions of the most dominant or charismatic person in the room, even though there's zero correlation between being the best talker and having the best ideas -- i mean zero. so ... (laughter) you might be following the person with the best ideas, but you might not. and do you really want to leave it up to chance? much better for everybody to go off by themselves, generate their own ideas freed from the distortions of group dynamics, and then come together as a team to talk them through in a well-managed environment and take it from there.
now if all this is true, then why are we getting it so wrong? why are we setting up our schools this way and our workplaces? and why are we making these introverts feel so guilty about wanting to just go off by themselves some of the time? one answer lies deep in our cultural history. western societies, and in particular the u.s., have always favored the man of action over the man of contemplation and “man“ of contemplation. but in america's early days, we lived in what historians call a culture of character, where we still, at that point, valued people for their inner selves and their moral rectitude. and if you look at the self-help books from this era, they all had titles with things like “character, the grandest thing in the world.“ and they featured role models like abraham lincoln who was praised for being modest and unassuming. ralph waldo emerson called him “a man who does not offend by superiority.“
but then we hit the 20th century and we entered a new culture that historians call the culture of personality. what happened is we had evolved an agricultural economy to a world of big business. and so suddenly people are moving from small towns to the cities. and instead of working alongside people they've known all their lives, now they are having to prove themselves in a crowd of strangers. so, quite understandably, qualities like magnetism and charisma suddenly come to seem really important. and sure enough, the self-help books change to meet these new needs and they start to have names like “how to win friends and influence people.“ and they feature as their role models really great salesmen. so that's the world we're living in today. that's our cultural inheritance.

As we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. But it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. There is a
famous motto saying that “A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” It is really true. We have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. When we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
正如我們所知道的,我們會感到寂寞,如果我們還沒有一個朋友。但這并不意味著我們可以依靠我們的朋友。有個著名的格言說:‚一個朋友就像一個棉花棉絲被子,但真正的東西,是使你暖和是你自己的溫度。‚這是真的。我們必須努力同我們的朋友,互相激勵,互相幫助。當我們能收到更多的愛與友誼,我們應(yīng)該償還高達就可以了。
Finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our heart
最后,讓我們一起祈禱了,有一天,我們都能找到我們想找的人,就可以享受一段美好友誼的真正左右我們的生活了。讓我們一起祈禱友誼之花卻成為我們的朋友,我們將永遠綻放鮮艷的在我們的心中

now none of this is to say that social skills are unimportant, and i'm also not calling for the abolishing of teamwork at all. the same religions who send their sages off to lonely mountain tops also teach us love and trust. and the problems that we are facing today in fields like science and in economics are so vast and so complex that we are going to need armies of people coming together to solve them working together. but i am saying that the more freedom that we give introverts to be themselves, the more likely that they are to come up with their own unique solutions to these problems.
so now i'd like to share with you what's in my suitcase today. guess what? books. i have a suitcase full of books. here's margaret atwood, “cat's eye.“ here's a novel by milan kundera. and here's “the guide for the perplexed“ by maimonides. but these are not exactly my books. i brought these books with me because they were written by my grandfather's favorite authors.
my grandfather was a rabbi and he was a widower who lived alone in a small apartment in brooklyn that was my favorite place in the world when i was growing up, partly because it was filled with his very gentle, very courtly presence and partly because it was filled with books. i mean literally every table, every chair in this apartment had yielded its original function to now serve as a surface for swaying stacks of books. just like the rest of my family, my grandfather's favorite thing to do in the whole world was to read.
but he also loved his congregation, and you could feel this love in the sermons that he gave every week for the 62 years that he was a rabbi. he would takes the fruits of each week's reading and he would weave these intricate tapestries of ancient and humanist thought. and people would come from all over to hear him speak.
